When you install Lansweeper, a self-signed certificate with a one-year validity period is created in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\Service\certificates" folder. When updating Lansweeper, the certificates are not updated. This raises questions. If the certificate expires, will LsAgent continue to work correctly? Can I take a certificate from a clean new installation of Lansweeper and simply replace it in the old installation by copying it? Is the password for this certificate empty? Can I generate my own certificate and simply replace the current certificate by copying it? Has anyone encountered issues with network traffic security systems due to a self-signed certificate?

Tested. From a clean installation of Lansweeper of the same version, I took a fresh certificate (two files) and replaced it with a simple copy. Success - LsAgent worked properly and transmitted the data to Lansweeper.

The certificate password is not empty. You cannot replace it with your own certificate. Network traffic security systems will respond to a self-signed certificate.
